You got the order wrong there. He panicked already on D1, feel free to reread his D1 posts or our exchange(it's not a fun read). In my mind he thought he was getting lynched by me and I'll get others to go on him too(his own words) so he started making noise early rather than late to avoid the votes. D2 I started by voting him not just for suspicions but also for fun due to our exchanges and him saying he likes the attention, yet there he flips out again. Looked to me a lot more like him "having to play his role" now that he already went crazy D1 and that it'd be odd to calm down D2. Again, he did the same in Omoneko. He got his Daws lynch, was wrong, yet instead of admitting he was wrong and humbling himself he doubles down and goes again the crazy path. This double-down here looked the same.
Explains a lot that you didn't play that game or you'd feel what I feel. He could absolutely not be reasoned with that game even after being proven wrong. One thing I do agree is that his "vote and lynch me" thing of yesterday that he was urging people was very new for him(both as mafia and town), but I thought he maybe is hoping for it to have the opposite effect and people to believe he's being just a crazy townie.
And regardless of all that, it was just so tiring. He said X, I respond or show he's wrong/lying, he responds back in a mocking tone, moves the goalposts and hammers away. Then an hour later after I stop, he says the same X again to solidify his "points" he was making, even though I showed him wrong. Infuriating is a better description. If it was anyone else I'd have still not let that provoke me but the feeling that I'm being used like in Omoneko again just couldn't let me accept it.
Yeah, I hear you. I'm looking through a different window so it's easy for me to say "why didn't you see it this way?! You're Gry-tan after all

" but you've experienced different things to make you react and think different ways.
Based on my own bullshit of games past, I feel the more insane something looks/feels, the more someone is just town desperate to do/create something out of nothing. That's just me though
I hear you, just unfortunate overall. Still think there needs to be criticism over for all Shad voters because there's likely scum floating around there who took advantage of it.
I really dont want to go back into the absurdity of the Shad situation, just thinking its very easy to judge people's decisions about something when you aren't even following their train of thought.
For you it was a "paranoid townie speaking nonsense after nonsense", to me it was a "mafia pretending to be paranoid". As Gry pointed out he did that play before and it worked wonders for him.
Window comment applies here too I guess, but I do know you're able to cut through most things so you can forgive me for having doubts that the mystical reinhardt-simping pigeon could cut through to the truth at the core
It strikes me way more odd how people like you or James simply knew "he was town and picked on by a bunch of bullies" but decided to not step up on it. Looking at the carnage and then pointing fingers at the survivors instead of trying to solve it. Whats up with that Sam?
Considering all the facts, it was very clearly desperation based on a conclusion created out of nothing. He went out of his way to make a program to track vote changes as things progress which in itself seems like something mafia wouldn't waste their time on, at least publicly, if at all. That's the first point to consider. The second point to consider is that as town I tried to keep a clear head through it all and actually consider other options simply than letting my thinking revolve around the issue, so it was easier for me to put it into perspective of being overblown drama and thus more likely than not harmless. Simple deduction, this game has been a wonder for my MG analysis and thought process, I'll teach you my way next duo-game.
I think all the players have now been online a decent junk after DD's claim. No counter claims or Pirate claims despite that.
Pirate absolutely should NOT claim, especially if DD's doc claim is legit and not just him baiting mafia as a townie. Showing all our cards is literally a game-over scenario with no coming back unless mafia get decimated today via lynch and lambu bomb.
